It is hard to believe that we have already reached the end of the first marking period. Teachers will be wrapping up grading for the 1st quarter over the next week so keep an eye out for grades being finalized soon. Honor rolls will be finalized after that with celebratory post cards being mailed home.

For students who did not quite meet expectations, we will be developing Learning Recovery Plans to recover the essential learnings a students did not comprehend and allow them to raise their grade. We are doing this to keep students engaged throughout the school year and not have them "check out" due to a bad start. You Titan will be contacted by their AP or school counselor if this plan needs to be developed.

Our new Titan Service Scholars program has been very busy this week with two events. Last Friday they served at the Empty Bowls event and this week they went to Klem South to be Book Buddies with some of our future Titans! Tomorrow, the Service Scholars will be at Applebees celebrating our local Veterans and passing out over 300 handmade Thank You cards for their Service to our country.

Thank you to Mrs. Prindle and all the Service Scholars who participated. If you would like to join the Service Scholars, stop in to the Counseling Center and see your school counselor. njoy some photos from the events below.
